Wishlist Thursday[112]: The Night We Said Yes by Lauren Gibaldi

A fun, romantic read, perfect for fans of Sarah Dessen and Susane Colasanti!

Before
Matt, Ella had a plan. Get over a no-good ex-boyfriend. Graduate from
high school without any more distractions. Move away from Orlando,
Florida, where she’s lived her entire life.

But Matt—the cute, shy, bespectacled bass player who just moved to town—was never part of that plan.

And
neither was attending a party that was crashed by the cops just minutes
after they arrived. Or spending an entire night saying “yes” to every
crazy, fun thing they could think of.

Then Matt abruptly left
town, and he broke not only Ella’s heart but those of their best
friends, too. So when he shows up a year later with a plan of his own—to
relive the night that brought them together—Ella isn’t sure whether
Matt’s worth a second chance. Or if re-creating the past can help them
create a different future.

In alternating then and now chapters,
debut author Lauren Gibaldi crafts a charming, romantic story of first
loves, lifelong friendships, uncovered secrets, and, ultimately, finding
out how to be brave.

Why?:

I’ve already heard some buzz about this
book, and it sounds very good. It sounds like a fun contemporary, very up my
alley. The comparison to Sarah Dessen makes it seem like something I could
definitely like. Plus, that cover is so nice.

Updates.

9/29/16 (re-edit)My review days are changing to Monday - Thursday. I'm planning to do reviews on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Tuesday will be Teasers, possibly with a little wishlist or catch-up included. I am currently moving, and have just started back in school. Third year of college, and working, and I am starting to have very little time for everything. I'm trying to keep up with this, though, on top of it all.

Thanks!-Jude

Who Am I?

An amateur reviewer, and blogger in general, (hopefully) getting better as I go.
If you have a question, or are interested in sending me a review copy, or for just anything, really, you can e-mail me at: geekyreading@hotmail.com

Ratings and Stuff

I post my reviews on both Goodreads and Amazon (although some do not go on Amazon, if I think it's more of a rant than anything else), sometimes on Powells, and I will post the review somewhere else if asked (although, take into consideration the fact that some websites have a word limit, and some of my reviews exceed that limit).

Ratings:1 Star: It sucked, I had a hard time reading it. Couldn't stand any of the book. (Possibly didn't finish, but I usually don't rate or review those.)2 Stars: Didn't really like it/lower side of just alright.3 Stars: Liked it/was about average.4 Stars: Was really good/loved it/awesome.4.5 Stars: Loved it completely, practically 5 stars to everyone else.5 Stars: I don't tend to give these out, um, ever. It's more common for me to give it to a whole series than one particular book. The best book ever, I hold it above most others, it impressed me and made me unbelievably happy.

Aside from those general ratings, I'll give books in-between numbers. Like, if it was good, but not amazing, I'll give it a 3.5. If it was just alright, but not too bad, a 2.5.

Review Copies: I do accept review copies. I much prefer paper books, but I do read some ebooks on my phone. Also, I do prefer romance, young adult, manga, and erotica. And please, do look at my previously rated and reviewed books to see if yours matches with what I've liked. Thanks! :)Receiving a review copy in no way influences my rating or thoughts on a book.
